Thanks Yes I know that the av files are separated however they only had so much $ for the project.

When I did try and make avi's of them a 2 hour timeline said it was going to take about 4-6 hours.

I have Sorenson compression suite 4.5 as well.

Suggestions anyone using Sorenson compression suite or is it faster using Liquid.

Really not that much faster encoding with a 64 bit os? wow...

Thanks Dave
